my Mother had always watched Fireball Xl5 because she liked the theme song. In1964 my Dad was in the hospital in Anchorage Alaska. Mother had been at the hospital all day. she said I'm going home and get cleaned up. He said ok. Just as she started out, the door Fireball came on. I want to hear my song. Well about a minute later the whole hospital was falling down around them. That's when they had the big earthquake. The elevator she would have been in fell 3 stories. Fireball saved her
